How Plimoth Patuxet gets Living History right | Experiencing History? | Episode 4

On November 16, 2019, Erin visited Plimoth Patuxet (then Plimoth Plantation), a living history museum in Plymouth, Massachusetts. This museum succeeds in many areas where other living history museums fail--Erin considers why Plimoth Patuxet does better and how the people behind this experience continue to improve the history presented. 🎬 Footage courtesy of Graham Christie. 🎵 Theme music by Broke For Free.
